(Event Winner) Successfully Transition to Lineage 2 Essence as an Old School Player

[dearari]

Hi, I'm Betina  

I'll try to make a guide for an old school L2 player to adapt in L2 Essence.
It's important to understand that Lineage 2 Essence is quite different from the old Lineage 2 clients. With that in mind, this guide aims to provide you with useful information that will help you navigate this new world

Here are some thoughts i make:

1. Let's start by discussing the map. In Lineage 2 Essence, finding raid targets and selecting the right location is much easier.
   You can even mark your favorite zones for quicker access, which is a handy feature. While there are already many leveling guides available, this guide is meant to offer tips specifically for old school Lineage 2 players starting out in Lineage 2 Essence.
   
2. Unfortunately, there are not as many catacombs and necropolises in Lineage 2 Essence as there were in the old game.
   Instead, most of the areas are custom-designed with a greater number of monsters to make it easier to find targets.Everyone is farming in Lineage 2 Essence, so get ready to compete for spots.
   
3. Farming is fun and easy, with cool automatic features and buffs.
   You can easily farm in Lineage 2 Essence without using illegal programs to farm overnight. There's an automatic hunting mode with features like long range and short range farming, respectful mode, and automatic use of potions and scrolls. You can also buff your characters automatically without needing multiple boxes. For now we can open up to 5 windows at once, so we can farm more easily
   
4. Items might seem confusing at first, but you'll get used to them.
   In Lineage 2 Essence, getting the best gear is different than what you might be used to. The A grade gear is the top tier and you don't get bonus stats for having a full set. Instead, each piece of armor has its own stats. So you need to mix and match to get the best stats. Check the Game Assistant under the Exchange Coupons tab to see the stats of each individual piece. Jewelry works the same way, but you can upgrade them for better stats.
   
5. The events in here are lit AF, with some being super unique and rewarding. You can get pets, dolls ( ), rare items, and tons of scrolls and potions for your far.
   
6. You may have heard about the hardcore quests in this game, and let me tell you, they're worth the effort.
   Imagine facing the challenge of defeating thousands of monsters in a specific area - it may seem daunting, but the reward is definitely worth it.And if you're looking for extra experience, there are daily quests that you can complete to level up even faster. Not only that, but there are also daily clan activities that you can participate in, as well as the orc fortress - a place where you and your clan can fight for control and dominate the area.
   
7. In the world of Lineage 2 Essence, Adena is king - and we're all striving to get as much of it as we can.
   But let's be real, it's not always easy to come by - especially for newcomers.But fear not, because with a little bit of patience and perseverance, you can start raking in the Adena in no time. It may take a bit of effort, but the rewards are definitely worth it. One way to start making Adena is by farming monsters in certain areas. With a little bit of strategy and some powerful gear, you can easily earn a few million Adena per night per character. And as you become more experienced, you'll learn even more ways to maximize your Adena earnings. So don't be discouraged if you don't have a lot of Adena right now - it's all part of the learning process. With time and dedication, you'll soon be swimming in the riches of Lineage 2 Essence.
   

There are so many cool things waiting for you in this amazing world, so get ready for an epic journey filled with excitement, challenges, and unforgettable moments. Whether you're a returning player or a newcomer, there's never been a better time to jump back into the action.
